I'm not sure what's happening so I'll try and explain what I know.
I am getting the error "Thu Aug 17 20:01:57 MDT 2006: BAD CLIENT
(xx.xx.xx.xx): Invalid HTTP format, parsing fails."
I'm running mongrel 0.3.13.4 from gem source, and running on a Macbook Pro.
I am running rails in development mode and if I switch to running
webrick, all requests come through as normal and return valid
responses.
So, the only problem I have is using a windows machine to access
portions of the site. So far, I can consistently reproduce the
problem in Firefox 1.0.7. I also can reproduce this in IE. One
windows machine is a Parallels VM with a base, Win XP system. The
other had Zonealarm firewall, but I have disabled that due to the
thread that mentioned Mcafee security center.
So, what are some ideas and is it possible that I am missing something
critical that I have overlooked?
Thanks for any help,
Steve Spigarelli
